    Did my oil change, and found this.
    Should I worry? I don’t do long distance driving. 2-3x a week, I put maybe 12km if that lol. Very short distance driving, 90% of the time.

    Damn youuuuuuu!!!!!!!!.... Congrats on the great find!:thumbsup:

    Put the driver's side bead molding on both doors and added some padding around the tweeter in the driver's door. It's been buzzing slightly at certain volumes. Noticed there was a small wear mark from one the bolts holding the speaker in place on the back side of the door panel, so I cut a piece to fit around it- No more buzzing!. Yes, I was buzzing while driving..:rasta:

    Those Kickers play the lowest note out of any 6x9 I researched and I researched over 10 different brands/models. That's great stuff if a person doesn't want a subwoofer(s), or if their subwoofer(s) are 15" or larger.

    Go for longer rides and evaporate the moisture that is collecting in the engine.

    What you see there is all of the goo, there is probably more in the valve covers. It collects there because that is actually a cooler part of the engine.

    Mine does the same . 20 - 30 miles on the highway helps remove he moisture.

    LED's in housing's made for Halogen bulbs will blind oncoming traffic.

    That's freakin crazy. I'd crap my pants if my trucks oil looked like that. But I see you're not the only one to write that it's normal. It must have to do with his trucks short trips and the weather/climate. Idk, yikes.

    His oil doesn't look like that....just froth at the top of the filler neck. Normal in cool to colder climates.

    Cold weather+short trips do this. I freaked out the first time my truck did it too, but I found out it’s normal.

    Well I wouldn't want to do that. But the point of having adjustable headlight housings is so that you can aim the beam. Obviously if you dont adjust for the new bulbs it's going to change the direction of the light. As for the light bar, it literally is a no name light bar. The meter showed my light bar was slightly less bright. But the difference is negligible as far as the human eye can tell.
